Top Awata Shrine Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is in a great location for tourism in Kyoto; very short walk across the river to the old Geisha district, and right on a major shopping/restaraunt thoroughfare. Also within walking distance of the subway line that serves the Mt. Inari area. The room was sizeable by Japanese hotel standards, and included a very spacious shower and full bath. Everything was very clean and the air conditioning worked well. The room was also quiet and well-insulated."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"If I could give them 10 stars I would. Staff were very accommodating, helpful and friendly. There is an excellent bakery on the first floor as well as the restaurant. I managed to snag some fried fish tacos and they were delicious (and I’m from Texas). The cocktails served on the 6th floor patio were amazing. There’s a great vibe there."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Kawaramachi Jokyoji

8/10 Good

"Good hotel, well placed if you are looking to be very close to the touristy area. Very close to a train station, tons of services around as well. Bed is comfy, with a firm mattress. Bathroom shower is great, and having access to a public bath is a huge plus. Only caveat is that the hotel is mostly packed with tourists, which brings its own set of issues in the public bath (haven't seen anything outrageous, but definitely a few "no no" in bath etiquettes). Room has thick carpet, which was a bit of an issue for me due to allergies (they do vacuum regularly). Convenience store not even a 30 seconds walk away. For me, it's too close to the super touristy area, so I might think twice next time I book in Kyoto. It may sound picky, but to each their own in terms of what you look for in terms of experience. For the price and everything I listed above, hard to beat. They do not have a laundry facility, but there are two close by. Staff were super helpful, polite, etc"

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel. The staff was extremely helpful, as expected in a quality Japanese hotel. Even some of our unique requests were handled perfectly. The breakfast had both Japanese and western options; whatever you wanted, it was there. And most people spoke about how good quality it was. The room was great. Robes, slippers, beautiful pyjamas. Massive bathtub and excellent hot shower. Finally the location was excellent. A few minutes walk to higashiyama train station, a few more to sanjo station. The entire gion area is a few minutes walk, with all of the parks and temples and everything beautiful. Very highly recommended. I would go again."
